I think the key difference between the Tea Party and the others is that the Tea Party isn't defined by any change they want to make, but strictly by their desire to oppose, defeat, and humiliate Democrats and Liberals. The others are more defined by the changes they want to make, the kind of society they want to mold. The Tea Partiers or Limbaugh Republicans really just want to defeat Democrats (which, they believe, will lead to a better society).
